preamble
The story of the elixir is quite prominent among Wesley's stories. It is basically a well-structured mystery novel with very twists and turns, and the idea of the elixir only makes the story seem more bizarre.
Since ancient times, human beings have been looking for the elixir of immortality. Wesley's story has a consistent theme: in the general concept of human beings, none of the things worth pursuing is truly happy after getting it. Before the elixir, There are transparent people, with predictive ability, etc., and there will be many more in the future.
This point of view is to show that people are very stupid. The things they spend all their time pursuing are because they can’t get them. If they really get them, the result is pain. The happiest people are those who don’t pursue anything. , no gain, no loss, peace of mind, joy and contentment!
The writing time of this story may be quite early, because Bai Su is mentioned in the text as a newlywed wife, but I can't remember the exact date.
